I've been going to USENIX Conferences since 1983, and I find that
during the technical presentations there is always at least one session
(no matter how they run things) that, for me, has no interesting
papers. That's when I go to visit the /vendor/show and poke fun at the
marketroids. Since these shows aren't that big (Comdex, it ain't) it is
possible to get through the /vendor/show in three hours, if you don't
dawdle at any particular booth too long.
